Hotmail issues

We are aware that a number of users are having issues receiving their InsaneJournal email from hotmail. I have been monitoring the InsaneJournal mail logs and I see that hotmail is accepting our mail but it is never reaching users' inboxes. I am trying to open a line of communication with them but it is proving difficult.

  It might help. It is defiantly something on there end. I am hearing reports that this is happening with some of the other journaling sites as well.

        I used Feedback > I want to give feedback about security… > and tell you about something that I don't like.
        
        I don't know if they'll see it/care, *hands*.

      Hotmail sends Yahoo groups mail also as returned to sender quite often. So the problem is definitely on Hotmail's side.
